Cheap Upgrade on your 312mm brake system

[slick]

ATE Brake upgrade kit

I know a few people where looking to get upgrades on the Cupra/FR's this seems to be a good upgrade not to far from what unclefester did, but for about 200 notes less (not a porka caliper but a Stoptech i think from the looks of things!)

Thought it might intrest some of you!

 

[The MoffMeister]

yeah just saw that asked them what size they were but look good for money

 

[slick]

I asked for the spec of the calipers as to see the pot sizes etc.. plus asked if the bell rotor throws the caliper back enough to fit behind the wheels, as i know unclefester had to use 10mm spacers on the front to fit his calipers.. and its alittle too far out for most...

 

[The MoffMeister]

but was his wheels 17's or 18's as i have just bought the latter, so prob wouldnt ned them but wouldnt mind 5mm spacers or so

let me know if he gets back to you

are you thinking of getting these then seeming as your selling your other ones?

 

[Soundwave]

Arrrggghhh why am I so broke

Would love a set but no pennies at the mo whatsoever

Yeah I'm looking at a R32 set up and have half of the needed parts, but come across this and thought, pretty good set up.

Just did abit of research on this kit and well on the ATE website they list the kit as 1995 Euros, about £1550, so its a bargin from what i see here, either that or that have made a royal f' up on the price, and not realised it...

I feel depressed...

think the discs on them are 323mm, already asked the guy before, they are a £1000 originally,

 

[Soundwave]

The more I look at these the more I want them

If I hadnt had to pay for my flights to Florida last night then I'd have been all over these

 

[The MoffMeister]

323 so no diff to the lcr ones then umm maybe not then

 

[slick]

No they are 312 I'm sure, dont look big enough to be 323mm

 

[nick-barnes07]

of the seller, 325mm my mistake

these disc are 325 mm dia with four pot callipers, there will always be some problems with wheel clearance when using 4 pots on the spoke area, so can't answer that, but if these disc are larger dia they should perform better.
hope this helps.

 

[nick-barnes07]

i am going to order a set for my s3, as a set of 2 piece discs would cost you nearly that

Are they as good or better then say LCR brakes Bill?

 

[nick-barnes07]

they are over a £1000 from other companies on the net,

I have no experience of them but ATE are usually ok tho.
This has to be a one off price... no way they are available this price to that spec of 2-piece etc...

 

[The MoffMeister]

and he has 10 of them to sell

 

[olaf]

I am very much tempted!!

Mmmmm..........wonder if they will clear my wheels

Seems the last kit they sold was at £650. Received good feedback.
